Fiona (Alias: Snowfall) is one of the top spies at the agency. There's no mission she hasn't completed and no target she hasn't taken down. She doesn't do attachments and she doesn't fuck around. Sebastian (Alias: Apollo) is also one of the agency's top spies. Though his methods may seem all over the place, he knows how to get the job done. And have fun while doing it. Fucking around is his speciality. When Sebastian and Fiona get re-stationed to the suburbs of Nevada, they don't expect to go undercover together. They definitely don't expect to get married.

Things only get more complicated when they decide to be frenemies with benefits. *Cover from Pinterest NOT MY OWN ART WORK* Trigger warning: Murder, verbal domestic abuse, drug addiction, and overdose
